Miles Davis – Sketches Of Spain Yellow Vinyl LP

Miles Davis – Sketches Of Spain Yellow Vinyl LP

Sketches Of Spain is a landmark studio album by American jazz trumpeter and composer Miles Davis, arranged and conducted by Gil Evans. Originally released in 1960, it blends orchestral jazz, Spanish classical music, folk-inspired themes and Davis’ unmistakable trumpet voice into one of the most atmospheric albums in his catalogue.

This single LP edition includes Concierto De Aranjuez, Will O’ The Wisp, The Pan Piper, Saeta and Solea. The album is especially important for Concierto De Aranjuez and Solea, and remains a unique meeting point between jazz, classical colour and Spanish musical atmosphere.

This Yellow Vinyl LP 180 gram reissue was released by Columbia on 30 March 2017. The edition presents Sketches Of Spain as a collectible coloured vinyl release for Miles Davis fans, jazz collectors and listeners who value orchestral jazz, spacious arrangements and one of Davis’ most lyrical trumpet performances.

On a good hi-fi system, Sketches Of Spain should sound wide, atmospheric and expressive: Miles Davis’ trumpet floating above Gil Evans’ orchestral textures, percussion and brass placed with space around them, and the album’s Spanish-inspired mood unfolding with cinematic scale.
